  1. You don't walk behind the tiller and press down on the handles; you walk off to the side and let the depth bar determine how deep it tills. If it runs away from you, it stops when you let go of the bail.

  2. I am watching this for the first time . tire irons are avaliable at Harbor Freight in several sizes works much better than screwdrivers also much easier on tube . Also start opposite the valve stem .Let the bead drop into the drop center of the rim

  3. can someone tell me what is going on with my tiller, I have a troy bilt super bronco crt tiller, when I go to start it, it will die out right away, I already looked over everything, I put a new spark plug in it, the old one had good spark too, then I cleaned the carb several times, fuel does come out the hose where it connects to the carb, I also checked the fuel cap for air vents and they were clean, I put fresh clean fuel in it and even a carb and it still dies out, there's nothing else check, I need help

  4. Frozen/rusted axle shaft/wheel hub – I bought a Troy Bilt Junior rototiller with the hub rusted onto the shaft, just like yours was. What I did was use a large socket over the axle shaft end and tapped it inward toward the body and used a little lubricant in the process to break it free, and then rotated it left and right while pulling it outward to remove the wheel. Then I sanded the shaft and the inside of the wheel hub. Then put a little oil on the shaft, and it spun like new. I bought mine at a garage sale for $20. Next I have to replace the carb, and have the belt engagement lever welded (I broke it thinking I had to disengage the belts in order for the wheels to rotate). I liked watching how you removed the frozen wheel hubs, albeit after I broke the lever action!

  5. Nooooo, Herr Doktor Professor Mustie. We never get tired of watching you tear a carb apart.
    Your comments can be Rodney Dangerfield hilarious.
    Not to mention every once in a while something new pops up.
    Of course this is another awesome video.
    In fact, this is the second time I'm watching this one.

  6. Hi. Lovely video. Could you maybe help me. I have a similar machine. The problem is that one of the wheels is not rolling when it’s in gear and in action. What could be the problem? Thank you.

  7. You know your stuff man!!! You seem like one HELL of a TROUBLESHOOTER without using any service manuals either. I know you probably do a bit of research on each machine, but you're probably just troubleshooting based on years of experience as well. Keep it up brother!!! Love your videos. AND< I'm learning a FEW things as I go. ^_^
